Merry Christmas!

 Good morning. And having been made perfect, He became to all those who obey Him the source of eternal salvation. Because of His suffering and learning obedience He saved us not just for a while, but for all eternity. As we said before He was designated by God as a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek, not Aaron. The writer of Hebrews wanted to talk more about Mel, but they had become dull of hearing; and so it was hard to explain to them. For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of God, and you have come to need milk and not solid food. Got expects us to grow - not to stay where we are. Remember that Paul told Timothy to teach others what he had taught Timothy, and that they should teach others also. By this time they should be on a solid diet. They did not get a solid foundation. They needed to tear down everything and start all over again. For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is a babe. When you are a baby and not used to eating solid food, there will be a problem. He must mean then that the word of righteousness is the solid food. Too many Christians do not want that kind of solid food. I want the easy (milk) way out. Solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil. You have to practice in order to discern between good and evil. Father thank You that the reader is mature and has his/her senses trained to discern good and evil.
